If you by chance are coming to Phil’s Camino in the next month wear your rubber boots. Or if you come anywhere near the Great Pacific Northwest wear your rubber boots. It is crazy wet and we are supposed to see the sun til Sunday. That seems appropriate.
Dispite that we were out there in the elements yesterday to finish our second walk across Spain. We had seven walkers and three big Rhodesian Ridgeback dogs tearing up the trail. Yea, the end of 909 laps, seems impossible sometimes. Of course then we had to have tapas and wine to wash those down.
What strikes me is the realization how much effort goes into a Camino walk that last forty days. That is the time the average walker does it in. Compare that to six months for the first Phil’s Camino here and a year and a half for the second. I am just blown away when I think about how much we did in Spain in such a short period. But what we do here is good, it is appropriate.
So please come by when you get a chance. You probably need a break from doing your taxes about now, right? Rubber boot loves, Felipe.
How much I would have loved to be there!!!!!! Yes… Isn’t it crazy that we crossed a country by walking in 34/40 days?… I often think of what else I am capable of doing that may sound crazy or unbelievable…
Congratulations!!! Now, peregrinos, just remember the beatitudes… The Camino starts now, even if you follow to Finisterre or Muxia.
